Rik answers for both of us. “You've both done an amazing job here. The

atmosphere, the food, the ambiance, it’s all perfect. | thank you both for making my date with this remarkable

woman memorable.” | nod my agreement and they ask if we'd like dessert. Rik tells them we have other plans,

and we'll take our check when it’s ready.

“We have other plans?” | ask when they walk away.

“We do, our date isn’t over and | hope you enjoy our dessert place just as much as you've enjoyed our dinner

spot.”

“Well, I've been pleasantly surprised at your ingenuity and unde sure of

beyond compare.”

“I couldn't agree more about the company.” He says, bringing my hand to his lips and kissing my knuckles.

When we leave, he heads in a different direction, farther away from the pack house. He takes us to a spot that

I've never been before. He opens the door forand as | look around, he goes to the trunk and pulls out a

picnic basket.

“We're having a dessert picnic?” | ask.

“Something like that.” He says as he takes my hand and we begin walking down a dirt walkway. We don’t have to

walk long before we cto a place where the ground gives way. The cliff overlooks the nearest human city. The

city lights twinkling in the night, but far enough away that you can see every star in the sky. It's beautiful.

Rik finds a spot near a tree and lays out a blanket before pulling a bottle of wine out of the picnic basket.

“Compliments of my mother.” He says raising the bottle of wine.

“How is Luna Calista?” | ask. It’s been too long since I've spent any twith her.

“She’s good. She'd love it if you'd cby the packhouse. And, if I'm being honest, I'd love it too. You're a part

of this pack Cara, but you never do anything with the pack.”

I shrug at that. “I've never really had time. | mean, | train with the warriors in the morning, and have been for

years. But between training, school, homework, I've just never had tfor things like pack runs or dating.” |

“Hmmm, we'll have to change that.” He says and handsa glass of wine.

He reaches into the basket and pulls out a covered plate. The smell hitsbefore he pulls the cover off.

“Oh man! Are those the best brownies in the world?” I ask and am rewarded with

Rik’s smile.

“I may have put in a request and when mom realized they were for you, she was more than happy to comply.”

| bite into the gooey goodness and moan softly. Seriously, what does she put in these brownies?? Mine never

taste this good.

When | open my eyes, | realize Rik is watching me. Even in the dim light, | can see his eyes have gone dark. He

looks....predatory. A shiver of excitement runs down my spine. What would it be like to have him huntand

Artemis? Artemis purrs so loud at the thought that even Rik can hear it.

“Want to share with the group?” He asks with a devious smile. | shake my head no and finish my brownie.

He finishes his brownie and leans back against the tree. “We need to talk Cara.”
